SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Security audits in many teams are ad-hoc and reactive. This skill provides a formal, CSO-style framework to surface systemic vulnerabilities in a codebase and drive structured remediation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • OWASP Top 10 Coverage: Systematically assess categories from A01 to A10 and surface actionable findings.
  • STRIDE Threat Modeling: Apply STRIDE to major components (API, services, data stores) to identify attack vectors and mitigations.
  • Secrets & Dependencies Review: Detect hardcoded credentials and vulnerable dependencies with guidance for remediation.
  • Executive Reporting: Produce a structured audit report with severity, location, and prioritized fixes applicable to stakeholders.

Quick Start

Run a full security audit on the target repository and generate a formatted report.

FAQPage Schema
How do I perform a security audit on my codebase to identify vulnerabilities?

A codebase security audit identifies vulnerabilities by systematically applying formal frameworks like OWASP Top 10 and STRIDE threat modeling to major components, producing a structured report with prioritized fixes.

What is STRIDE threat modeling and how does it find attack vectors?

STRIDE threat modeling finds attack vectors by systematically categorizing threats across major components like APIs, services, and data stores, identifying specific spoofing, tampering, repudiation, information disclosure, denial of service, and elevation of privilege risks.

How do I check my codebase for hardcoded secrets and vulnerable dependencies?

Checking for hardcoded secrets and vulnerable dependencies involves scanning the codebase to detect exposed credentials and flawed libraries, generating guidance for structured remediation to secure your authentication and services.

Can I use this security audit approach for pre-launch and periodic codebase reviews?

Yes, this security audit approach suits diverse use cases including pre-launch audits, authentication feature changes, and periodic security reviews by systematically assessing OWASP A01 to A10 categories to surface actionable findings.

What is the best way to generate an executive security audit report for stakeholders?

The best way to generate an executive security audit report is to format findings into a structured document detailing vulnerability severity, code location, and prioritized fixes, making results directly actionable for stakeholders.
